Résumé

We report results of a thiotepa-based conditioning in haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG), for unmanipulated peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplants, in 80 patients with hematological malignancies. Patients in complete remission (CR) received a thiotepa-busulfan-fludarabine (TBF) regimen, while patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) malignancies received a sequential regimen consisting of thiotepa-etoposide-cyclophosphamide (TEC) and reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC). The median age was 52 (range, 17-72) years, 44% patients had R/R disease at transplant, and the median follow-up was 417 (range, 180-1595) days. The median days to neutrophil engraftment was 17 (range, 12-34). The cumulative incidences (CI) of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grade III to IV, severe chronic GVHD, nonrelapse mortality (NRM), and relapse were 16%, 16%, 26, and 26%, respectively. The 2-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were 53% and 47%, respectively. There were no significant differences between the patients in CR and R/R patients in terms of engraftment, GVHD, NRM, relapse, OS, or DFS. We conclude that thiotepa-based regimen with PT-CY can be modified with PBSC and ATG, still providing low toxicity, protection against GVHD, and low relapse incidence. Particularly encouraging are the results with the modification to sequential regimen in R/R patients.
